I have an B.A. in Spanish from the University of Wisconsin Madison, which I completed in 3 years, the last of which I spent studying Spanish Philology at la Universidad Complutense of Madrid, in Spain. I graduated Madison with an overall GPA of 3.9. I am currently getting my Initial Licensure and Masters in Education at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities.

I plan to go into secondary spanish education. - I have a lot of experience tutoring adults who are learning English. I help students who need English assistance apply for school, jobs, edit papers, read instructions, and more. This past year in Spain, I worked as an English tutor for 5 spanish students, ranging in age from 11-17. I worked with them on conversation, grammar, vocabulary, standardized test prep, and reading. September-November of 2015 I was a student teacher for second grade ELL at Andersen Community School in Minneapolis. I worked with small groups and whole classes teaching English through the content of science and social studies. Currently I am student teaching at St. Anthony Village High School in Minneapolis. I am teaching Spanish 3 there. I want to be a tutor because I love the spanish language and I love teaching. My years of tutoring taught me what I wanted to do with my life and have given me some of my most rewarding experiences working with people. I am a kind, patient person who wants to help people succeed and feel confident about themselves and their abilities.
